But my neighbor is kicking asses, I'm pleased. What''s the best, I smell something in his posts - PASSION!

Haha I'm not too proud of how I'm expressing all this passion, but it's definitely passion... I take everything seriously when it comes to Bayern, and that's me outside the forum too. Where I live there aren't many Bayern fans, I've met like only 2, but I wouldn't let anyone talk nonsense about Bayern and I won't get ever too old for that.(In the last 4 years I met more BVB fans, to tell the truth, Glory Hunters?!) That's where I get the feeling that the World is against Bayern, cause we're not that supported outside Germany.As we know that other teams are in big debts, only Bayern is prospering in every aspect and to that people are not seeing the end(what is the best part), they don't want us in the top, and they're making up these crazy stories just so they could upset us somehow... BVB is not gonna win anything with this complaining, just make the whole league look like... whatever.Nobody cares about BVB or Bayern, they want them both were they were before, nowhere in Europe.

RM probably have printed their posters and jerseys with 11 CL cups and reserved the area for celebrations, already paid for everything. Nobody can ruin their party but Bayern...

Oh jesus.

Haha

Honestly part of me likes Dortmund. I accept Watzke's criticisms as part of Dortmund's play in order to try to keep their players, so it doesn't rile me up at all. Dortmund wouldn't be rivals if there was some tension between the clubs. What Watzke and co say is also geared toward keeping sponsors convinced the club is competing. These days Dortmund's brand strategy is definitely to appeal to who like an "underdog". Borussia is like the Rebel Alliance

At the end of the day I'll happily see any German team be successful, especially against the other European teams. But I'm not going to be convinced that Bayern must make themselves less competitive for the benefit of the other German teams, or that Bayern cannot go for the same players that clubs from other leagues are looking to poach.

I'll be cheering for Gladbach for tonight atleast. They are in the form of their lives. 18 games unbeaten this season (club record) and just 4 points off the top of the table if they win tonight. Dortmund can start winning next matchday

For BVB is a "do or die" match,a win against a top team like Gladbach at the moment,will be a huge boost for BVB but a defeat will be devastating.I'm expecting that will BVB will push today for an early goal but Gladbach will be more dangerous on the counter,Hummels absence will be crucial,he can guide a defence,he provides composure(Sokratis can't at the moment) and he reads the game perfectly above all his build up & defensive skills will make BVB vulnerable at the back.Maybe Klopp will use Reus-Auba-Kagawa upfront,like vs Bayern,dunno but I don't see him trust Immobile very much.

Gladbach will be more relaxed on this,they have almost no injury list(only Xhaka),they are in the top of their game,and they know that BVB has to attack,so I'm expecting from them to be really calm on the ball and to hit right on target as they usually do,Herrmann & Hahn is the best duo right now in BuLi because they provide week in week out everything(goals,assist,defense) overall they are world class,they will give a hell of a time to BVB's defense,Nordveit is a big question and maybe Klopp and his player will go hard on him.Favre's 4-4-2 it's "poisonous" for BVB,if Sokratis or Subotic(especially) won't be 90' fully concetrated it will a veeery tough night for them.

My prediciton is a g/g match tonight,with a great rythm and I suppose that the more clinical team with the best GK will have a tight win(Sommer > Weindefeller)

@Borusse,what about Marco Reus,is he ready tonight? I heard about a stomach flu and that he is doubtful for tonight's game.Moreover,it is likely to see a Bender-Gundogan partnership today at midfield?
